A panicked mother in Lincoln, Nebraska called police after her 3-year-old son wandered out of an unlocked door and went missing!

Luckily the tiny tot didn't make it too far as he made his way just down the street to Madsen's Bowling and Billiards! There was just one itty bitty problem. He was stuck inside their claw machine!

A customer spotted the child and alerted an employee, but apparently they didn't have enough qarters to get him out because they were forced to call police and the vending machine company to help rescue him!

The little one didn't seem too phased by the strange situation as he was reportedly playing with the toys inside the whole time, and eventually authorities realized he was the same boy who went missing earlier!

Fortunately he was reunited with his mommy and everything turned out to be OK, but we still have two HUGE questions: How on earth did he get in there, and is this where babies come from?!?
